Champion SportsBowling Set with Plastic Pins - Ball Sold Separately

these are full size plastic pins. there is a cap that can be removed to add water or sand for added weight. we didn't choose to do that as they were fine as/is for our needs.they include a cardboard template for pin placement. we used the template and made marks on the ground for easy pin replacement.this was exactly what we wanted. the kid versions of bowling are small. these are full size pins.

The media could not be loaded. Love these! They are the real size and fun to play with. We filled them with sand we got from Lowe’s bc we used actual 13lbs bowling balls on them. They definitely stood up to the challenge.

I expected the product to have a little more weight. It was a problem since it was not immediate usable.

You can weigh them if you want to but real pins are about 3lbs 6 oz. If your not throwing a ball over 1 pound or so you don't need to weigh it down. Good standard size pins made from sturdy plastic. You won't be disappointed. I'm a bowler and am very happy with this purchase. Did not need to add sand with a 1 lb rubber ball. Nice to know you can if you want, however.

So the big thing question / comment is about the pins being weighted. They do not come weighted, but there is a plastic peg at the top of the pin that you can easily remove to fill the pin with some type of weighting material (see photos).My gripe is not so much the weight, but the plastic molding seam that does not leave the bottom flat. I printed some plastic caps to put on the bottom of each pin to make the bottom absolutely flat and to give it a slightly wider base... the cap I made has a recess in it for a small magnet so that I can stand them in grass on little round disks held nearly flush to the ground with flat top metal stakes ( by the way, this was necessary based on how I am using them - it is still easy to knock over with a 1lb foam bowling ball as the magnet is only strong enough to keep them from blowing over in the wind).Anyway, I think the seller should point out the fact that there is a peg at the top for filling somewhere in the description. Maybe they wouldn't get blasted as much in the comments. No real issue with the pins -- the quality is pretty much what I expected. I will probably get another set.

Very annoying. Didn’t comeWith a ball. Didn’t get that impression when I bought it!!

look like the real thing, the grandkids loved them

Product as described if you want it heavier just add sand, there is a hole on top with a pug that snaps in. Regulation size. Great for price. I got 2 sets for a pair of role out lanes, the are perfect for my coaching.
